L’edizione 2017 dei Bet Awards – premio per artisti appartenenti a minoranze istituito nel 2011 dalla Black Entertainment Television – si è aperta con l’esibizione di Dj Khaled. Vi abbiamo già raccontato del freestyle di Eminem (che se l’è presa con il Presidente Trump), probabilmente il momento più alto della serata, ma non ci siamo dimenticati dei vincitori.
A conquistare il maggior numero di statuette ci sono il solito Kendrick Lamar e la giovane Cardi B, rapper 25enne di origini dominicane che con il singolo Bodak Yellow ha conquistato la Billboard Hot 100. Qui sotto la lista completa con candidature e vincitori:
